S.R.O. No.267/2018— It has come to the notice of the State Government that the

Associations of Transporters, Loaders, Tippers and Stevedores engaged in transport of

necessary to prohibit strikes of the Association of Transporters, Loaders, Tippers and

Stevedores in the State in order to continue the transportation of minerals

uninterruptedly.

Now, therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred by Section 3 (1) read with

Section 4 (3) of the Odisha Essential Services (Maintenance) Act, 1988 the Government

of Odisha hereby prohibits strikes by any Association of Transporters, Loaders, Tippers

and Stevedores in Odisha. The order shall remain in force for a period of six months
